3 Ch-3 All Smiles

"System is it possible to check a village stats"

[AFFIRMATIVE, BUT ONLY AFTER THE VILLAGE SUBMIT TO THE HOST ]

"Hmm... That much is to be expected... Robb gather every single villager in front of the town hall"

"As you wish, lord"

After saying that he left the town hall to gather villagers and notify them about the current events, while Ryan was checking the throne made up of the bones which laid in the middle of town hall.

"You really overdid this time... But still thanks for the labour Hermes "

Said Ryan while getting comfortable on the throne which was covered with tigers skin at major parts to make it more comfortable and Ryan was looking really domineering and majestic while sitting there.

"Pleasure is all mine, my lord"

Said Hermes while licking blood from his fingers, with his usual grin and then that he heard sound of commotion from outside the town hall.

"Seems like the time to meet my first subjects has come "

Before going out Ryan changed his clothes with chief's long black robe, not as good as Hermes but still much better than his previous tattered clothes and when he came in front of the mirror he saw a man with average height, long white hair, black charming eyes and pale looking face and after doing so he left the town hall to meet the restless crowd with Hermes following right behind him.

"Everyone calm down, lord is coming "

"Calm my shit down, you traitor how can you call a bastard lord who just killed our chief "

"Yeah, you are the most unfaithful person we have ever seen, shame on you"

Robb was trying to make them understand the cruelty of Ryan and most of them even came to understanding, but there were still some fools left which were trying to uphold spineless justice, where the jungle law prevails.

"So there are still some puny humans left who dares to put resistance in front of my lord, give me permission once again to make fences out of them for this village"

Said Hermes with exciting voice, which petrified the whole village for a moment with fear and now they understood what Robb meant before by saying don't act reckless in front of Ryan.

"No, please my lord, give them one more chance to serve you, they were fools and didn't knew what was better for them"

"Don't beg for us you traitor, we are going to die either way, we haven't met the demands for this month"

The previous rebel said with grimacing the fact cause according to them their death was written on stone and they can't even flee cause goblins had made their base between the Timutha and kylom from where the villagers belong and their is no other option cause if they go to Laeryon they will be treated as slaves ready to be sold out.

"What if is say that I will get rid of those goblins "

*SILENCE*

This was something they have only dreamt about, a village without terror of goblins raiding them, enough food for themselves and life without life threats for them and their loved ones

"All of us will submit to you with our own will"

And then it came the sentence Ryan was waiting for, afterall the hatred for goblins who have raped and murdered their loved one's was far beyond in comparison of Ryan.

"Very well... Remember your words you all have agreed upon just now, otherwise... you will find death as a blessing in disguise "

This surely made villager shudder, but they didn't think twice about their statement afterall that was their only chance to avenge all the loved one's.

.....

"So is this the village of goblins ?"

Ryan asked few meters away from a village which was bustling with activities and from time to time laughter and shrieks of pain could be heard from there, while standing atop a tree with Hermes and Robb standing at the bottom of tree.

"Yes lord, this is their village but they have around 300-400 goblins, while including orcs which can be counted on one hand and on the other hand our village has around 150-160 villagers Including male and females "

Robb answered Ryan's question while explaining their reasons for living everyday in terror of being killed.

"Hmm... Hermes what do you think when you imagine us directly attacking them "

"My lord, can I be Brutally honest with you?"

"Always be honest to bones with me"

"Then my lord, it's certain death for us cause if you die my lord, I will die too and I'm not confident in protecting you while engaging in fight this big of a size with my current strength"

"That makes total sense... "

Ryan was thinking about the future course of action when he saw a group of 5 goblins going out of the village for hunting and then an idea clicked Ryan's mind and he made a smile which can go unnoticed if one is not proficient in reading expression.

"Hermes kill 4 of them and bring one of them here alive without much damage inflicted "

"As you command, my lord "

Hermes left excitedly after giving a light bow to Ryan.

...

"My lord, here is the goblin you asked for "

Hermes said with smile bigger than his usual which shows he had enjoyed slaughtering other 4 to his heart's content and if that is still not enough, then you should just have a look at the remaining goblin who was a living proof of above statement.

"So this is a goblin... Robb, it looks exactly as you have said in past except it's a little bit more ugly "

Robb on the other hand was feeling an emotion named sympathy for someone he thought he would never will a goblin after seeing the huge grin plastered on the face of those two devil.

"So, what's your name green one ?"

Ryan asked and goblin who was still shuddering because of the death of his comrades in front of his eyes said weakly.

"Gobi... My lord"

"So, Mr Gobi will you do me a favour "

"I will do whatever you ask of me... My lord"

"Now that's promising, but still to be on safe side eat this berry Mr Gobi "

Gobi's mind was already blank, he ate the berry easily and throughout this process Robb was also shuddering while thinking what's to come.

"So, you have to do a very simple job to live a happy life which is to put this into your comrades food, simple isn't it "

Ryan said while giving a flask to Gobi with bright smile like a shining sun on the gloomy days.

"As you say, my lord... But what was that berry about, which you gave me?"

"Oh that's nothing, just a poison who's antidote you will get after the job "

Ryan said that as a matter of fact and like it was something so trivial which doesn't hold any value to talk about.
